Solve this system of equations using the elimination method.

Answer:

(6, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our system of linear equations is:

6x + 2y = 18

-4x - 2y = -6

When we solve by elimination, we're essentially "eliminating" a variable so that we can solve for other more easily. Here, let's eliminate the y variable by adding the two equations together:

    6x + 2y = 18

+   -4x - 2y = -6

____________

    2x  +  0y = 12

x = 12/2 = 6

Plug this back into one of the original equations to find y:

-4x - 2y = -6

-4 * 6 - 2y = -6

-24 - 2y = -6

-2y = 18

y = -9

The solution is (6, -9).

Answer:

(6,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 2y = 18

-4x - 2y = -6

2y = -4x + 6

6x - 4x + 6 = 18

2x = 12

x = 6

2y = -4(6) + 6

2y = -18

y = -9

(6,-9)

The weight distribution of parcels sent in a certain manner is normal with mean value 17 lb and standard deviation 3.3 lb. The p
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: The value of c would be 26.514 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 17 lb

Standard deviation = 3.3 lb

At 99%  level of significance, z = 2.58

So, it becomes,

Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\2.58=\dfrac{X-17}{3.3}\\\\2.58\times 3.3=X-17\\\\8.514+17=X\\\\X=25.514

So, the weight c would be

c=25.514+1\\\\c=26.514

Hence, the value of c would be 26.514 lb.

Susie bought 4 3/4 pounds of cherries at the store. She ate 5/8 of a pound on the way home.
GuDViN [60]
Convert 4 3/4 to 4 6/8 to match the fraction of 5/8 that she ate. 4 6/8 - 5/8 = 4 1/8. Susie has 4 1/8 lbs of cherries left.
